A marriage of cultures was born by paring the colonial-styled French doors (the architectural language of the house) against an interior theme of modern South African paintings and furniture. The idea of weaving the two cultures is also physically manifested in the use of rattan that reflects not only the cultural essence of Africa but also hints of South East Asian history under the colonial rule where the rich (plantation owners) who would live in large colonial homes like the house they inherited.
